One of the all time greats.

Saw him pitch many times at Senators/Yankees series.

Last of the great Yankees of the mid century. Hope he and the Mick and Billy have a big night tonight.

Whitey passed watching the Yankees play game 4 of the ALDS. God Bless Whitey Ford, The Chairman of the Board and perhaps the greatest Yankees starting pitcher of all.

My first memory of Whitey Ford is fuzzy. He was on the field during Mickey Mantle’s day when they retired his number “7” in 1969. I’m almost sure they interviewed him saying he was Mickey’s best friend on the team. I was eight at the time.

236-106 and a 2.75 career ERA. Pretty stellar.

RIP
